Re: An observation and some comments...

People who loathe CGC usually have a crapload of comics that are under near mint that they THOUGHT were near mint plus. Ha ha! So true. That first time you submit a book that you thought was Near Mint, that comes back an 8.0, is a real eye opener. Never have and never will submit to CGC - too tempt...
